Who would'a thunk...

So I lucked out this April Fool's Day and didn't have any jokes played on me. Well, at least non that a fell for :)
However... I guess you could say that my house kind of played one on me
On Wednesday I decided that I didn't want to steam up my whole bathroom while taking a shower. (we only have one small window in there and no fan so with out fail, it gets all steamy) Anyway... I decided to leave the bathroom door open to keep the air circulating. Well without having a problem anytime before I proceeded to take a shower. All of a sudden, hair full of conditioner I hear the smoke alarm chirp. and not a chirp as in it was out of batteries, a chirp as in earsplitting all hell breaks loose deafening sounds! So I rush trying to get the conditioner out of my hair, while worrying that I am waking neighbors up, and worrying that there is an actual fire. Jump out of the shower (soaking wet) no time to dry off, put on a robe while grabbing a chair to investigate the alarm. I can't get the alarm to turn off, so I called my dad to see if he knew of any tricks or could tell me of something I was doing wrong. He asked if I had burned something, I said no, then asked if I took a shower, which of course I said yes to. well he told me to fan out the bathroom and swing the door to get the steam away from the alarm. I hung up with him and did what he asked and shortly thereafter the alarm turned off. Quite an "adventure".
Well telling Corey that, he didn't really believe that steam from the shower could set off the alarm.
Unfortunately for him (fortunately for me) he had to find out the hard way... Sunday morning, once again the fire alarm goes off, luckily it was a little later in the day but I'm sure our neighbors probably didn't appreciate that much. Corey does what I did and is scrambling around trying to get the thing to turn off while I am laughing hysterically at the situation and at him! Well he comes up to me asking what he should do. I took one look at him and erupted again with laughter, so hard I couldn't stand up straight! He didn't have his contacts in so he had put on his glasses and with all the steam from the bathroom I couldn't see his eye color through the big white, fogged over lenses! Finally I told him to fan the door and eventually the alarm turned off. It may not be funny to whoever reads this, but it sure gave me a good laugh, just thought I would share. Yes who would'a thunk, shower steam can set off a smoke alarm.

At least we know it works right!




OH! P.S.
We find out tomorrow what we are having! I am so excited!!! So if anyone has guesses and reads this before I post some time tomorrow or the next day I would love to know what you think!
